I have a question, I want to make a vegan themed shirt but am stumped with the easiest method to take a photo and make it into an outline / vector of the person in it , just their head, don't want to spoil the idea yet by saying who , basically I want to make an outline of the head down to shoulders with facial features intact but transparency in between that, so sort of a line drawing .. then people can put it on any colour shirt they like but red will be by far the best!!
any ideas ? I'm on a mac but have a titchy windows 7 netbook too..
If you have photoshop or GIMP(free software) that would be really easy. Just open the photo and a new layer and trace the face onto the new layer. Delete the original photo layer and there's your face with transparency. If you want to put it on redbubble use their template for the sizing.
